That's the problem when you use vB 4.0.2. You have to wait for a fix or use vB 4.0.1.

Will we be able to assign 'Tab Sub Links' to 'Drop-Down Items' in the future?
eitherway, great mod!

y downloaded the default tab archive and it`s in spanih.
where is the english version?

I think it would be great to make this mod so that you can not only make new nav menus but also arrange them around too.

As an example:

Stock vB is:

HOME | FORUMS | BLOGS | WHAT'S NEW

Then have this mod arrange them like this, with a new menu:

HOME | BLOGS | WHAT'S NEW | FORUMS | MEMBERS

The ability to move them around would be quite handy :)

any idea what it's getting updated?

Y need some help.
Y instaledd vbadvanced and when y select the portal Tab wich directs to the vbadvanced the tab remains on the forum.
How can y fix this?

y manage to make the highliht work fine but nau the navbar dissapears when y select the protal tab :(

I also have the issue with 4.0.2. Where is the developer? The mod says he was last on line Feb 2010.

:down:

Hi,
I got a problem with a tab I created:
When I choose this tab: http://testforum.c-arena.com/content...Games-Overview
it also marks this one: http://testforum.c-arena.com/content.php?142-Support

But if i click on the other Tab: http://testforum.c-arena.com/content.php?142-Support
the first one isnt marked active.

Why? :(

This mod has been working great on our 4.02 site!

Wish list - it would be nice to be able to edit the default tabs, not just disable them.

-Steve

doesn't really work.
all in spanish and it didn't appear in my admincp.

You didn't download the Spanish version?

Wow, so there is not even a template/hook edit to get the What's New tab to go away on 4.0.2?

Just looked at navbar and header templates, it's not there.

Which StyleVar to change appearance of dropdown menu font, background colour and hover colour?

can someone help me with my problem please?

Awesome plugin!

BUT--

I can't make the plugin highlight the cmps index page even when I add adv_index in the options page. The forums tab is highlighted when visiting either the cmps or forums page.

I'm using vb 4.0.2

However, when I add "index" in stead of "adv_index", both tabs get highlighted but in a wrong way. The forums tab is highlighted when I visit the cmps homepage, & the cmps homepage tab is highlighted when I visit the forums tab.

That's weird.

Thnx!

same problem y have with vbadvanced

can someone help me - ive spent hours today trying to find a way to link to my photopost gallery and this seems the only way I can but Ive tried installing this 5 times and I cant get the menu to show in admin cp - the files there in the settings menu .
I downloaded the files to my comp then uploaded to my vb4 folder and chose the xml file via the plugin manager. I even copied the xml file to the includes folder to see if it was that!
I presume its omething simple im doing wrong - its a steep learning curve im on

Hi Johnny!

I am still waiting for your addition to allow a tab to be highlighted if it is a forum and you are in a thread or post or subforum. Have you done this yet? If not, any idea when? I sent you some money in anticipation for this feature and am still waiting.

Thanks!

Edit: To clarify, this post explains it well I hope. :)

is it possible to have a sub menu in the dropdown menu.

menu
- submenu 1
- submenu 2
- submenu 3
.. - sub submenu 1
.. - sub submenu 2
- submenu 4

What he said. Would be useful to have sections so you encorporate within one main tab.

Same here and the sub menu disapears on the home page aswell.

Great mod - I created a plugin to do something similar but you have done well with this and it should have been standard for vb4 - well done Mate!

There is always a BUT :)... as I will have different pages in the sub menu of a tab, the only problem with the new vb4 tab menu system is that a user has to click a tab first before they can see the sub menu items - not your fault mate but rather a vb fault with lack of forethought in making their navbar more user friendly in my opinion.

It would really enhance this mod if there was some way that on-hover of a tab changes the sub menu items to the ones under that tab you are hovering on - helps the user to decide if that tab has the sub menu items they may be looking for - when the mouse leaves the navbar hover the sub menu items are back displaying the items for the selected tab.

Just a thought but would be greatly helpful to site users

if someone would help us would be great

this menu does not seem to work well with all version of IE on my sites
any fix for that

This could be MOTM, but still needs improvement! The selected tab being one of them and define index.php from forum.php in vbadvanced.

this mod has not been updated for vb402. i havent tried troubleshooting this on a 402 install, so i cannot offer much help.

Anyone willing to make a version of this mod for 3.8.4 - basically a tab menu system - if so I am willing to pay :)

Real Nice!!

covering your tracks eh'

This totally rocks and is working like a charm so far other than the highlight of the tab for the drop down menu.

I have got the same problem :(

I am using the original style but with some changes on 4.0.2 :(

Looks like Jhonnyf has abandoned support for this mod all together. :(

The same

why do you say that?

Maybe because it's been almost a month since he posted something here. :rolleyes:

I'm switching over to the other tab hack....

What other tab hack?

THIS one. ;)

"This product does not add sublinks even if tabs are selected."

Well... that defeats the purpose of what I need it for :)

Best tab mod thank you

My 'What's New' tab does not disappear even when I have the 'Hide "What's New?" tab?' set to yes. Is this feature not working for everyone, or is this something on my end?

Update: yes it is a bug. see reference.
